So just because I don't want an over-hyped player, I can't be a part of the team?
Reading an Italian Juventus forum, they think it highly unlikely he'd be sold this year, but, perhaps like Dele, it's not inconceivable he'll be sold a year from now if he has another average season. They seem to think he'll be important in the Sarri system and there's no way he'd leave before seeing how it worked out. Again, a bit like Dele, he hasn't progressed like they hoped he would and this season is very important for him.
I think the story would have more legs if Allegri were still there but, as I said already, I really do think it's a non story.

But argentina are rubbish even with Messi dragging them.
No - you said 'hope you get him' - which implies you support another team?
They have different skillsets. Dybala is a striker/ wide forward.
I think the Betis deal is practically agreed and has been for a while. Who knows why they are delaying the announcement
Ever had??? I think these two handsome devils will have something to say about that. But depends on whatever floats yer boat I guess
I've watched Dybala since he was in Serie B with Palermo (wife is of Sicilian heritage and a Palermo supporter), and he's probably my favourite player in the world that isn't at Spurs.
The idea that he's overrated on the back of one season playing along side Ronaldo who basically took up all of his space and touches is hilarious. Here's his Serie A goal totals the past 5 seasons:
14-15 (Palermo): 13
15-16 (Juventus): 19
16-17 (Juventus): 11
17-18 (Juventus): 22
18-19 (Juventus): 5
It's obvious that Ronaldo had a massive impact on him, and they really cannot play together. That makes Dybala at 25 somehow available, despite being one of the best young forwards in the world. It's an insane situation and one that any club with a brain would try to jump on.
Dybala has been at his best playing off a bigger striker who can finish chances he creates as well as occupy larger center halves, allowing him to drift in and out of spaces along the whole front line ... in many ways, similar to the role Dele has had with Spurs. His partnership with Higuain was sublime, and he would likely find a similarly rich partnership with Kane.

I usually ignore this kind of gossip but am letting myself get excited about Dybala. He'd be an amazing signing. A front three of Son, Kane and Dybala would be terrifying.
I see. You seem very happy with the prospect of a Dybala deal, so in that manner I hope you get what you want. I don't think it's in the best interest of the club, but that's just our different opionions.
Then we’d win the world cu......oh maybe not, dam ..!
Greatest hairstyle of all time.
Have a word with yourself, son
